Session Details This session describes the newest best practices that AEM developers can follow in order to have more predictable application deployments. Introduced as an Apache Sling feature in 2019 and used in AEMaaCS since 2020, precompiled bundled scripts provide developers two major improvements over the classic way of deploying AEM components: the scripts can be versioned and have explicit dependency chains, like any Java API the script compilation can now be done during the application's build process, allowing to discover potential errors fast (e.g. missing dependencies, wrong API usages, etc.) We will focus on how developers can set up their projects to provide their scripts as precompiled bundles and use local AEM Sling Feature analysers to verify that the API requirements are satisfied, helping them to catch any potential error early.

Session Details Get to know more about how to leverage the AEM as a Cloud Service code refactoring tools to accelerate your transition journey to Cloud Service by making your existing content (package structure, indexes, AEM Asset processing workflows, dispatcher configurations) Cloud Service compatible via automation. In this session, we will show how we can use the aio-cli-plugin-aem-cloud-service-migration (our Adobe I/O Extensible Command Line Interface (CLI) based NodeJS plugin which provides an unified experience for these code refactoring tools and minimizes the overhead of installation and setup), to easily install the and use the code refactoring tools. We hope to help people understand the best practices around using the code refactoring tools, by showing the execution of the tools on real AEM customer code base.

Of course, competing changes to the frontend module would lead to merge problems when pushing to Cloud Manager git and would need to be resolved. Which part of this can we use for on premise setup This feature will be available on AEMaaCS as it requires specific infrastructure to work. This delive

I might need to understand the context or use case in a little more detail but the connector is not meant to be a bulk migration tool from one system to the next but rather provide the ability connect WF to AEM when it comes pushing folders and assets between systems as it relates to creating content. @3749 Herrington - Thanks. It makes sense. For initial migration, I am considering AWS S3 Asset ingestion tool. But my question is how to get the metadata of assets from Workfront and tag them in AEM? Does it need to be do

Author: Artur Ciocanu (arturc85303583) Adobe Target always provided best-in-class experimentation and personalization. Our edge network is geographically distributed and we have points of presence in different parts of the world. This allows us to be closer to our customers' users, but sometimes this is not enough, since fundamentally Target always required a network call to retrieve personalized content. We always knew that this is could be problematic for some of our customers who are looking for near-zero latency for experimentation and personalization. In November 2020 Adobe Target launched NodeJS SDK and Java SDK with On-Device Decisioning capabilities. In a nutshell, On-Device Decisioning allows you to evaluate Target activities on-device avoiding a network roundtrip. For more details please check the official documentation here. Adobe Target On-Device Decisioning, while great for server-side use cases where you can use one of our SDKs like NodeJS, Java, and

The parts are: Part 1: Akamai Edge Workers and Adobe Target NodeJS SDK Part 2: AWS Lambda@Edge and Adobe Target NodeJS SDK Part 3: Cloudflare Workers and Adobe Target NodeJS SDKStep by step guide As mentioned in the first two articles, we love Terraform and we use it heavily for Infrastructure Automation. In this blog, we will show how you can leverage Terraform and Adobe Target NodeJS SDK to create and deploy a Cloudflare Worker. Step by step guide Cloudflare Worker is a great technology if you intend to run some compute as close as possible to end-users. Cloudflare has points of presence in 200+ locations across the globe which ensures that you can have your logic running close to your customers. To make

Here’s something you may not know you wanted... but it’s super-useful for precise personalization. (It’s also a prerequisite for an upcoming HOWTO post that’s very exciting, so I wanted to get it out first.)   As you know, when Marketo gets a form submission, it stores the submitted values — no more, no less — alongside the Filled Out Form activity:   However, this “form-fillout-centric” view is not available anywhere else in Marketo outside of the Activity Log.   Instead, when the Filled Out Form is finished processing, the values in the Marketo database — and the values you operate on in Smart Lists — are a combination of: the unchanged values of fields blocked from updates the current values of fields that weren’t even on a given form (neither hidden nor visible) the updated values of submitted fields that were not blocked from updates   So you can’t truly act only on what someone&nbsp
